Run a game once a week. Maybe twice, depending on the inspiration of the moment. Generally, when I get a motivated group, it motivates me, so more would be imaginable.

The most I have ever done was running games five days a week some of those days with two different groups.  Also two of those days were one shot demo type games.  This went on for a month before I burned out.

Now I enjoy running games once a week at the most.  I prefer a little prep time and time to do other things besides gaming.  

Playing games I could probably do more often but right now there aren't any being ran that I am interested in at all.

Once a week with each group, not more than two different groups.

Once a fortnight with one group is definitely not enough. Once a week with one group is okay. With multiple campaigns, I want multiple groups, too. I don't want to see all the same people every day, that makes gaming seem too much like work! Though having 1 or 2 people overlap the different groups is fine.

I've been most happy when I ran a game weekly, and played in a second group fortnightly.

I mean, I have a woman, non-gaming friends, and other hobbies, too. And of course work. So I couldn't game every day, and wouldn't want to.

One of the other players in my current group runs one other game, and plays one other each week, and also has occasional boardgame days on Sundays. So he's gaming 3-4 times a week. He finds it a bit much but also just can't say no...

Most gamers I know of are pretty content with a single weekly session, though they like a break every four weeks or so - if there's no official break, you find they mysteriously get busy or sick or something, but are happily back next week.

Sigged!

Presently, one day a week is my max...but like Pundit, that's as much due to outside factors as anything...I have a wife, two kids, a fairly time consuming job, until recently spent one night a week dressing up in a silly costume and being a pro wrestler, trying to break into comic books...more than once a week would probably break me.

I wouldn't want to run or play in a game more than once a week.

Once every two weeks is much more likely. Gaming is such a time sink and I don't have near as much time as I used to.

Running one game a week is my limit right now, what with work and school.  I could probably play in one or two on top of that, though, and still be OK.  I can run 3-5 games over a con weekend, though, of course.

I can GM 1 session per week at max; I have way too many other things (band, writing gig, domestic life) taking up my free time to get in more prep time than that.

As a player, I'd do a session a night if I could!

Most of the time (although not currently alas) I run two games a week, and that's about my maximum. They're different campaigns, and one of the games is a solo game so I don't get burnt out GMing because they are so different to run. I've run two sessions of the same game every week for a few months in the past, and while it was fantastic gaming (the best I've ever been involved in - the players really got involved in their characters and developed them amazingly), it ultimately burned me out for a while.

As for playing - I don't know, as I've never played more than once a week (and don't play at all at the moment).

I'm in a weekly group that plays about 6 hours per session... and it's a bit of a drive to get there. So that's enough for me... playing wise.
If played with roommates... for maybe 3 hours at a go... just casually start up when we were all in the mood... I could see playing more often.

As for GMing... I've got an occasional game going with my girlfriend that seems to happen a couple times a month for a few hours.

I run 1 or 2 games a week, and that's abouy my top. I have many hobbies.

For me too much RPG is more than:
12 hours in a single day
16 hours in two days
28 hours over the course of a week
2 hours a week amidst squalor, decay or cats.
 
I don't GM more than once a week. I like having the extra time to muse over the possiblities. I favor sandbox style games so long range prep isn't as valuable as short range.
 
I don't think I could ever be in too many game groups if they were coordinated. Two or three is the limit practicaly speaking.
